I'm positive my wife will say, "oh, I feel sorry for Klohe (Kardashian)" when she hears this song.
It's not bad at all. I was confused when the Billy Squire sample came in, because I thought they were going with a Beastie Boys sound at first.

Yeah rap today sucks. Kendrick Lamar is decent. But none are like the old rap game.

I'm hoping he goes back to his darker days considering he's calling this MMLP2. He can't do that and not at least threaten to kill his wife once, right?

The more I listen to this the more I like it, because I realize it for what it is. It is an homage to classic 80's and early 90's style hip hop. We don't like it because we are used to the auto tuned, middle of the road average crap rap. I mean, if you really listen to this song, the beat, the cadence, its better than 95% of whats out there right now.

And that hook. Dear god that hook. Tell me it doesn't get stuck in your head like one of his damn top ten songs that you hear so much you get sick of them?

This is Eminem looking at the rap landscape and saying "**** you guys, I don't even care. See if you can even keep up with what I'm gonna do."

Every rapper out right now had the same reaction when this song hit. (*it rhymes with "truck", "buck" and "muck", but isn't allowed on VolNation, LOL*)

Lots of people on twitter complained about it for some reason. The same people who think Future and Lamar are the greatest in the business right now. But if you actually pay attention the lyrics there are so many damn jabs at people and homages that is scary just how smart Em really is.

Seriously guys, if you've not, check out the lyrics and laugh at the fact he did exactly what kendrick lamar did on Control, except in such a smart way that they may not be smart enough to figure it out.

The rappers today aren't smart enough to realize what Em did lol. He does see something on Lamar though. I think Lamar gets it is trying to get these other "rappers" to step up.

Are you kidding me? You know why I don't like it? Because I'm getting shouted at by the most overrated rapper alive in his trademark ****ty voice. Fantastic. I love the Beastie Boys and I see the influence in the beat, but then dude opens his mouth and it goes south. And cadence? Give me a ******n break.

Some of his songs are annoying and just garbage. But some of it is good and there's a few songs I enjoy a lot. He's hit/miss for me.

It's pretty hard to be nearly unanimously one of the top 3 greatest rappers ever and be "the most overrated rapper alive" at the same time (that title goes to Lil wayne, by far btw). So, I'm going to assume the millions of fans and all the people in the business (who can also have a discussion without throwing in swears like its a personal attack) are the ones who are right, and that you in fact, have the terrible taste.

100%

Sampling is lazy, his flow is awkward, and Em's lyrics are usually delivered with the nuance of a ball peen hammer.

I don't care how many people like him. He's built his whole career on novelty rather than skill. Most people have awful taste. Dude is a terrible rapper

He's not one of the greatest rappers ever. He was the first white rapper to get a major record deal. That is the basis of all his accomplishments. Dont get me wrong, he deserved that first record deal. He was hungry and ambitious and he truly was great in that era. But he never evolved. All his stuff after his first major record was as generic as can be. Popularity does not always equal greatness.
